At the last GLGDW I attended, the theme was "Fox is Magic". I think you just proved that.

As I wanted to make sure the projectmanager catches them when I completely rebuild the project, I created, guess, yes, a dummy-proc in the main program. And this of course did have comments like "These forms get called via macro, so this is just to trick the ...".

So I threw the forms out of the project-manager and recompiled - tada! They were back in. I packed the project, rebuilt it - tada! They were back in. I searched all the sources that could possible have anything to do with these forms. Threw them out, recompiled - tada! They were back in. I deleted the Project, rebuilt it from the scratch, recompiled the Project and tada! They were back in. A thousand other resources I desperately needed in there were NOT in but these f... forms always popped up again. And finally I took my WindowsCommander (could have taken code references) told him to search everything like prg, sct, vct...for those references and then found them in the startup prg. Arrrgh!
